MMM-Pir disappeard on github

[rkorell]

Hi team,
today I wanted to take care about the cron-funtionality within MMM-Pir and have a look at documentation but the link to module leads to error 404 - not found…
Any idea about this?
The graphical module page shows a last commit from January, 20th, 2025 …

Regards,
Ralf

@sdetweil indeed, Very sad turn of events.
Thanks - overseen your post.

Fortunately it comes to my mind, that the “documentation” of the modules comes with the module.
Still unfortunate, that module isn’t maintained - will may not work in later MM releases…

[sdetweil]

@rkorell keep the folder

@rkorell It would be best if someone could be found who is willing to maintain the module. The module is open source, so the work could continue in a fork.

Don’t the authors usually leave their github live, so that others can work on them if they want to keep using them… ?

@KristjanESPERANTO
Indeed, I totally agree.
I would like if I could, but I am not able to do this.
@bugsounet has developed an excellent piece of code - far beyond my abilities.
(especially in javascript - I struggle with the object oriented approach).

AFAIK yes, for this reason this seems like an unfriendly farewell to me .

@rkorell I have a fork at https://github.com/marclandis/MMM-Pir - not sure how much time I have to keep it updated.

[rkorell]

@MarcLandis cool!
Thanks a lot.
I keep an additional copy on my files …

Warmest regards,
Ralf
